Island Beach Club #P3E

Review Date: 04/18/2022

We have stayed in this condo about 5 times. Love the location, IBC as a whole and the pool is likely one of the best on the island. The furnishings as a whole in this condo are outdated and not worthy of the cost of staying there. Peeling wallpaper, blind in kitchen not working, sheets are threadbare ( same sheets from first time we stayed there I believe), kitchen utensils particularly pots and pans are very old and sticky, many utensils need to be tossed. The new couch and loveseat are nice and my son-in-law said the blow up sofa bed was pretty good. Carpet is obviously old and some of the throw rugs are ragged and stained. Master bed headboard is not fully attached and bangs on the wall just turning over in bed. Love the lanai and the view, love the full-size washer and dryer. Would rent this unit again if it gets a much needed update to reap value from the cost. - Anonymous, St Paul, MN

Unit was clean but dated...Great gulf view, short walk to beach, nice pool,...Overall, a nice unit to spend a week and enjoy Sanibel. Only complaint is the storage shed where beach accessories are kept...80/90% of the beach accessories need to be thrown out (old, dirty, rusted, broken,smelly,...). The entire storage shed smelled terribly - We opened the door and the smell knocks you out (storage shed is located in parking area away from condo unit)...We chose to secure beach accessories somewhere else. We were told Selective Vacation Properties is not responsible for the maintenance of the storage shed. The onsite Island Beach Club personnel said the condo owners should consider updating the beach accessories and clean the shed. Other than that, great week! - Anonymous, Greenwood, IN

A lovely condo with a great view. The kitchen is equipped and select vacation properties does a great job supplying sponges, soap, paper towels. Chairs and umbrella are in the storage locker. The pool is relaxing as is the large lanai with views of dolphins swimming in the gulf. Highly recommend. - Anonymous, Northampton, MA

Sanibel vacations are about being outdoors and enjoying sun and beach. Having a beautiful view of the Gulf during those few moments in side is a plus and P3E definitely provides that view. The Unit itself is in reasonable condition although a renovation would make it a stunning destination. Needed upgrades would include a larger TV in the main living area and updated cabinets and tile in the kitchen. The overall experience at Island Beach Club is most inviting--friendly guests and good amenities. The outdoor grills are particularly nice. - Anonymous, Minneapolis, MN

The view from this condo is great, not gulf front but you can see quit a bit of the beach and water and hear the surf. The lanai is large and well situated. The kitchen is nice but not gourmet by any means and there is quite a lot of utensils, pots and pans, etc. The master bedroom is huge and opens to the lanai which is nice. Bathrooms are adequate, tile flooring. No fan in the master bath which means opening the window a crack. Comfortable beds in both rooms. Living room furniture could use an upgrade, stained and saggy couch cushions. TV has bad sound and we could not get the DVD player to work. Very nice washer and dryer, full size and out of the way in a separate laundry room off the kitchen. The nose from the washer, dryer and dishwasher is unobtrusive. The swimming pool and shower area is so nice, the largest pool we have seen on Sanibel, well tended. We have been to IBC many times and plan to return. We also like its location on the island, close to many conveniences, the Bailey Tract, and can bike to Ding Darling and the lighthouse end equally well. - Anonymous, St Paul, MN

While the decor is outdated, it definitely has a nice beach feel to it. Very spacious and close to the beach make this property very nice. The only downside would be the beach furniture. It was all mostly rusted, so we ended up having to rent all of our own stuff. - Andrew M., Lakewood, CO

First visit to Sanibel Island and we were in awe of our view of the gulf from our unit. We were on the 3rd floor Penthouse condo and it was very quiet and peaceful. The only time we could hear the neighbors was when we were out on our balconies together. The landscape was gorgeous and well maintained. It was a great experience and we will be back. - Brenda L., N/A, CO

Island Beach Club is a great place to stay. We have been coming to Sanibel Island for 40 years as our family reunion vacation.
The only negative we have ever encountered in all those years are twice red tide (which happened this year), and algae problems in the water but that can happen anywhere. None the less the place is magical. - William B., Miami, FL

The condo was great but the beach was not so due to the red tide.
First time in over 20 years to be disappointed by our stay. Hopefully a solution can be found to restore what the red tide has damaged and destroyed. Seeing such distruction was heartbreaking. - Barbara M., Sellersburg, IN

We were very pleased with Unit P3E in Island Beach Club. The view from the lanai was beautiful; the kitchen was well-stocked with pans, dishes, utensils, etc.; the items in the shed were a great addition, also. We found the bedrooms to be spacious and the beds comfortable. While the decor was a little dated, it was a very nice condo. Most importantly, was its proximity to the beach. That could not have been better. - Anonymous, Oklahoma City, OK

We had a wonderful stay. Fantastic views of beach, Gulf, waves birds, and tropical grounds.
Great location on the beach with access to bike trails, Easy access to shops and restaurants
We had a great excursion on Captiva Cruises to Useppa Island and the Collier Inn, as well as an enjoyable half-day fishing charter.
A shout out to the Island Beach Club on-site management as well. - Anonymous, Palo Cedro, California

The view of the Gulf is gorgeous from the wrap-around lanai of this condo. Condo is very well-equipped with every gadget you will need. The unit is quite spacious (even has a laundry room with full washer/dryer & utility sink) & a cabana in the garage with beach things. The master suite is huge with a large closet & plenty of drawer space. 3 TV's (bedrooms & living room). Furniture is comfy, plenty of reading lamps, full linen closet, board games, dvd's, books, etc. Location of the building is great, plenty of parking (covered parking for the unit), nice pool & great beach. Loved it! - Elizabeth V., Miami, FL

We enjoyed our stay at IBC#P3E. The view was fantastic and the location was close to everything. We visited the "Ding Darling" Wildlife Refuge. The tram tour was very informative. We enjoyed riding bikes around the island and relaxing on the beach. The pool at IBC is also very nice and clean. Sanibel is a quaint, beautiful place to visit. - Anonymous, Coatesville, PA

Nice unit that is very well equipped. The screened porch is great this time of year as the sun stops shining on it at about 11:00 then it is shade the rest of the day.

The owners of this unit are wonderful and the unit itself is very well maintained and the stocked kitchen is wonderful as I enjoy cooking instead of eating out. Do not miss the Farmer's Market which has great food at very good prices. We also really enjoy the free Jazz Concert on Sunday afternoons. We hope to return again next year.

Overall, we had a wonderful time and the location was great! Cleaning staff could be a bit more thorough. We did find some snack items and discarded candy wrappers under the recliner and along the wall and the drain in the master bath was partially clogged. It would have been nice to have a vacuum for use during our stay - as with any beach, sand gets everywhere. :) We greatly appreciated the owners allowing use of the recreational items, i.e. beach chairs, umbrellas, floats, etc. - Anonymous, Corning, New York
